The cytosolic capping protein, Arp2/3 and myosin-I linker protein 2 or CARMIL2 plays an important role in T/B/NK cell function. Biallelic disease causing variants in CARMIL2 are known to cause immunodeficiency 58. We report a 13-year-old girl with recurrent infections, dermatitis and nephrotic syndrome since childhood. Her renal biopsy was suggestive of membranous nephropathy. Exome sequencing showed a homozygous novel stopgain variant, c.520C>T in CARMIL2 (NM_001013838.3). We expand the phenotypic spectrum of CARMIL2 related immunodeficiency to include membranous nephropathy secondary to probable immune dysregulation.
胞质封端蛋白、肌动蛋白相关蛋白2/3和肌球蛋白-I连接蛋白2(即CARMIL2)在T/B/NK细胞功能中发挥重要作用。已知CARMIL2的双等位基因致病变异会导致免疫缺陷58。我们报告了一名13岁女孩,自童年起就反复出现感染、皮炎和肾病综合征。她的肾活检提示为膜性肾病。外显子组测序显示CARMIL2(NM_001013838.3)存在一个纯合的新型终止密码子获得性变异,即c.520C>T。我们将CARMIL2相关免疫缺陷的表型谱扩展至包括可能因免疫失调继发的膜性肾病。
